New World Chorale Performance History

The chorus originally was formed as Soli Deo Gloria and performed under that name for its first two years, until it was discovered that there was an existing chorus with a similar name. To avoid confusion, this group’s name was changed to New World Chorale.
Here is a full list of NWC performances over the years (select a year to see the performances during that year). As a premier symphony chorus, NWC has performed in almost every major venue in Boston and in many community venues throughout New England since forming in 1999.
